DISP-REV DISM IMPROVIDENTLY GRANTED (OA)
|
|
We initially accepted jurisdiction to review Liggett Group, Inc. v. Davis, 973 So. 2d 467 (Fla. 4th DCA 2007), a decision in which the Fourth District Court of Appeal certified two questions to be of great public importance. See art. V, § 3(b)(4), Fla. Const. However, upon further consideration, we have determined that we should exercise our discretion to discharge jurisdiction. Accordingly, this review proceeding is dismissed. NO MOTION FOR REHEARING WILL BE ALLOWED.
